Spiritual force is what awakens the light within you

The true teacher is he who does not talk from the mind, although the mind and the mouth has to be used, but he talks from a spiritual depth which he has experienced himself. So what he is conveying to you so that your mind can grasp it is wisdom that comes from within. But that is not enough, that’s not all, with every word a certain spiritual force is sent forth. And that spiritual force is what awakens the light within you, activates the spirit within you. Without Gurushakti, or Grace, all your techniques are of no use, I was telling someone to-day. Every mantra that you practise or meditate upon or any other practice, the Preparatory Practice, all of them is only of value if it is given by one that knows his business. For, with sending that practice, the teacher is sending his heart, his whole heart and soul and spirit, pouring it and it comes with such force and power. That is the grace that is intermingling every practice you do,

That is where experience experiences itself, past is no more, present is not there, and there is no future. It is the nature of the […]

Teachings about Ego

So we normally divide things up because separation is part of our nature. We always divide things up. This glass is separate from me. And you are separate from her. Or whatever the case might be, I am separate from that video camera. And because of the sense of separation, you also create the separation […]

The Seeker and the Path

Who can conceive of that which is abstract? It is so much easier to conceive of it through the concrete. It is through the concrete that we become one with the abstract. True awareness necessarily stems from the truth that is within us, and it is a quality of truth to be absolutely unconditioned. When […]
